Points: 10

This exact replica of an original antique weighs only 1 lb, 12 oz, and the blade features an extreme distal taper, enabling it to feel exceptionally lively. A full 5/8″ thick at the hilt, and tapers to a super thin 1/64″, 1″ from the tip. The blade is hand forged from tough 1080 high carbon steel and spring tempered and arrives fully sharpened.
